As impressive as Cleveland has been on the offensive end this season, the team still defines itself by its ability to stymie opposing teams. In 71 games this season, the Cavs have held opponents to an anemic 91.3 points per game on 43% shooting while forcing 14.2 turnovers per contest. “It’s been unbelievable what we’ve been able to do,” LeBron James has said. “It just means a lot to see the growth that we’ve had since I got here to now; where we are as a franchise and what we’ve been able to do year after year. We’ve gotten better every year. This is a special year that we should all be proud of.”
